Thanks to every one of you for your service. In the fire service, we are littered with prior service. Something about serving and protecting that's in our blood I guess.

I finally got down to the Marine Corps Museum last summer. Thought it was awesome. Also took my son, 13 at the time who has Asperger's, so I wasn't sure if he was going to be bored or not. he was engaged the whole time, asking questions and said that he loved it at the end.
